Wait, we're talking about two different things here. The movie [/i]Avatar, by James Cameron, is a knock-off of Dances With Wolves told via Fern Gully in a sci-fi setting. What I speak of is the exceptional cartoon "Avatar: The Last Airbender," which both predates James Cameron's pile of crap and is infinitely better in both writing and execution. There can be almost no comparison between the two.

The Last Airbender, the movie by Shyamlan or whatever the shit his name is, is mostly horrible to people who've seen the actual cartoon. People who haven't will probably find it underwhelming, but not eye-bleeding.

The moment you see the real series, that movie becomes a stain on the universe.
